Summary
Seven-year-old Louis Armstrong had to work to help his mother pay the rent, but one day when the junk wagon he worked on passed a pawn shop with a gleaming brass trumpet in the window, young Louis couldn't resist, in a story about how Louis Armstrong got his first horn.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Seven-year-old Louis Armstrong was too poor to buy a real horn. He didnât even go to school. To help his mother pay the rent, Louis had a job. Every day he rode a junk wagon through the streets of New Orleans, playing his tin horn and collecting stuff people didnât want. Then one day the junk wagon passed a pawn shop with a gleaming brass trumpet in the window. . . .
